Decision on Taking Business in Private

The Convener (Duncan McNeil):

Good afternoon and welcome to the 20th meeting in 2009 of the Local Government and Communities Committee. I ask members and the public to turn off all mobile phones and BlackBerrys. Apologies have been received from David McLetchie and Patricia Ferguson.

Do members agree to take item 5 in private? Item 5 is consideration of the evidence from today's round-table session. Do members also agree to take in private future consideration of the themes that arise from evidence sessions in the local government finance inquiry?

Members indicated agreement.
